It’s never a good time for a crisis. Toni’s busy whipping up gluten-free holiday treats when a murder forces her to put baking on the back burner. A dead man has been found in the bathtub of a local inn—in a room registered to her brother, Tim.

With her sibling now a prime suspect in a mysterious homicide, Toni is determined to find out who set him up. But she’s about to get some unwanted assistance from former investigative journalist Grandma Ruth, who won’t let anything slow her progress in running down a killer…

Jennifer’s Review of Flourless To Stop Him

Review (4 Stars): Toni is preparing for the holiday season and trying to figure out what to give everyone when she is pulled into another murder investigation, this time involving her brother, Tim.  A dead body is found in the bathroom of the Red Tile Inn, in a room that just happened to be registered to her brother.  Now she must find a killer and clear her brother’s name before she becomes the next victim.

Such a cute and charming series.  I love cozy mysteries that involve food especially if the heroine runs a yummy bakery that has treats that make my mouth water while I’m reading about it.  Toni is a very sweet character and I like the way that she learns from her past mistakes in murder investigations and does her best not to try and repeat them.  I love that Toni has a sexy romantic interest in this mystery and I can’t wait to see where the relationship goes from here.  Delicious cozy mystery that will have this reader coming back for more.
